Happy Wednesday....and Another Rule...

This week is flying by.....thats a good thing for me!!
I'm not sure that I have intentionally created rules on my pages, but somehow in the midst of creating them, a new rule appears...
Today's rule....Make art for the simple act of making it....because it brings me joy!

I love that I can create in my art journals for no other reason than to create...no pressure for performance, just pure creation and play....aaaahhhhh...that is such a relief! When all other aspects in life require perfection or some type of command performance, its so nice to go to my studio and just play for the act of playing...who cares what I come up with....that to me is just pure BLISS!

I hope that you make this the best day ever...

Until next time,
Ophelia

Opie, I love this! It really touches something in me ... both the sentiment and the execution of it. Beautiful!

I am right there with you, Ophelia!!! Yippee! After a ten hour day and 23 children, I am ready to make some art with sloppy fingers and glue and papers and markers and it doesn't have to follow any rules! First time all day! :D

What a great attitude! I feel exactly the same way. If I didn't get to play in my studio every few days, I would go crazy!
